One thing we’ll never say about The Vampire Diaries: “You took the words right out of our mouths.” Elena and the gang utter things we’d never dream of saying — or at least hope we never have to. Without further ado, here are the 10 notable quotables from Episode 21, “The Sun Also Rises.”

I didn’t have a choice.Damon: That’s why I gave you the vervain. So you had a choice.Katherine: It was her or me. I chose her.Damon: I helped you. You owed me.

3. It’s not so hard to say goodbye…

Matt: I get it. This is your life now. But you know what my life is, Car? My life is an absentee mom and a bunch of bills to pay. And school. And a job. And it sucks sometimes. But it’s my life and I think that I just want to live it without all this.
